#### Methods
* All methods in MetaDataRef
* `get_inventory()`: returns `InvRef`
+* `mark_as_private(name or {name1, name2, ...})`: Mark specific vars as private
+ This will prevent them from being sent to the client. Note that the "private"
+ status will only be remembered if an associated key-value pair exists, meaning
+ it's best to call this when initializing all other meta (e.g. on_construct).
### `ItemStackMetaRef`
ItemStack metadata: reference extra data and functionality stored in a stack.
